BEFORE USING THE GLASS-CERAMIC HOB
•
To make the most of your new appliance,
please read the user instructions carefully and
keep them to hand for future consultation.
INSTALLATION
Cooktop
• The cooktop must be set into a worktop between 20
mm and 50 mm deep.
• There must be nothing between the cooktop and the
oven (cross rails, brackets, etc.).
• The distance between the lower face of the glass
ceramic hob and the cupboard or separating panel
must be at least 20 mm.
• If the cooktop is to be installed next to a column unit,
leave a distance of at least 100 mm from the edge of the
cooktop.
•
Make an opening in the worktop of the dimensions shown in
the Product Description Sheet supplied separately.
•
Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (unless it has already
been fitted), after having cleaned its surface.
Important
In order to prevent the electronic circuits from overheating, and
therefore from being damaged, we recommend the following:
• Do not install the cooktop near the dishwasher or
washing machine, so that the electronic circuits are not
in contact with steam or moisture, which could damage
them.
If there is an oven under the hob (manufactured by us), make
sure that it is equipped with a cooling system.
If the temperature of the electronic circuits exceeds the
maximum permitted temperature, the cooktop will switch off
automatically; in this case, wait for a few minutes until the
internal temperature of the electronic circuits reaches a tolerable
level, at which point it will be possible to switch the cooktop on
again.
• Switch off the hob after use.

Position the cooktop into the prepared worktop.
•
Position the 3 brackets (

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Electrical connection must be made before connecting the
appliance to the electricity supply. The appliance must be
installed by a qualified technician who is fully aware of current
safety and installation regulations. Specifically, installation must be
carried out in compliance with the regulations of the local
electricity supply company. Make sure that the voltage indicated
on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in your home.
Regulations require that the appliance is earthed: use conductors
(including the earth conductor) of the appropriate size only. The
manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals
and for damage to property resulting from failure to observe the
above regulations. For the electrical connection use a HO5 RR-F
type cable as indicated in the table below:
Power supply voltage.
The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply
by means of an all-pole disconnect switch with minimum
contact gap of 3 mm.
Warning
: the power supply cable must be long enough to allow
the cooktop to be removed from the worktop and must be
positioned so as to avoid damage or overheating caused by
contact with the base.
Terminal block connections
Note
: the yellow/green earth wire must be connected to the
terminal with the symbol and must be longer than the other
wires.
•
Strip approx. 70 mm of sheath from the power supply
cable (B).
•
Strip approx. 10 mm of sheath from the wires. Then insert the
power supply cable into the cable clamp and connect the
wires to the terminal block as indicated in the diagram located
near the terminal block.
•
Secure the power supply cable (B) by means of the cable
clamp.
•
Close the terminal block cover (A) and tighten its screw.
•
After the electrical connection, fit the hob from the top and
hook it to the support springs, according to the illustration.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE GLASS-
CERAMIC COOKTOP
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Cooktop not working
• When pressing the control buttons did you
follow the instructions in the section “Using
the hob” in the ”Product Sheet” supplied?
• Is there perhaps a power failure?
• Did you dry the hob carefully after cleaning it?
1.
If a cooking zone has been selected and an
“F”
appears on the display, contact the After Sales
Service and inform them.
2.
If the cooktop does not work following
intensive use, the cooktop internal temperature
is too high. Wait a few minutes until the
cooktop cools down.
Important!
If you are not able to turn the glass ceramic hob off
after using it, disconnect it immediately from the
power supply.
AFTER SALES SERVICE

1.
Try to solve the problem (see
“Troubleshooting Guide”).
2.
Turn off the appliance and restart it to see if the
fault is repeated.
If after the above checks the fault still occurs,
get in touch with the nearest After Sales
Service.
Please give:
a short description of the fault,
•
the exact type and model,
•
the service number (number after the word
“Service” on the rating plate) is located on the
underside of the cooktop or on the Product
Description Sheet. The service number is also
indicated on the guarantee booklet,
•
your complete address and phone number.
If any repairs are required, please contact
an
authorised After Sales Service

carried out by an
unauthorised technician
,
always request a certification of the job carried out
and insist on the use of
original spare parts
.
Failure to comply with these instructions may
compromise the safety and quality of the
product
.
Clean the cooktop, when it is cool, after each use. This will
prevent the build-up of dirt and make cleaning easier.
Important:
Never clean the appliance with high pressure water
or steam cleaning equipment.
•
Use a clean cloth, absorbent kitchen wipes and washing up
liquid or a specific glass-ceramic hob cleaner.
•
Remove baked-on dirt with the supplied scraper tool and
specific cleaning products.
•
Food spills should be cleaned off before they bake onto the
glass-ceramic surface.

Foods with a high sugar content (toffee, fruit syrup, jam, etc.)
that boil over onto the hob or sugar spills must be removed
immediately using a scraper.
•
Do not use abrasive products, bleach, oven-cleaner spray or
pan scourers.
